Charles Keeling Memorial Climate-Related Science and Policy Workshops; Washington, DC; June 2009-June 2010

这些基金帮助支持题为“查尔斯·基林纪念气候科学和政策研讨会”的一系列研讨会，其目的是探索自然和人为气候变化的科学基础以及适应和缓解的潜在战略。过去几年，美国气象学会(气象学会)在国会山为决策者举办了一系列成功的简报会，为讲习班提供支持。为了帮助那些对研讨会内容感兴趣但不能出席国会山简报会的人，医疗辅助队将拍摄研讨会的视频，并在医疗辅助队网站上公开提供。这样的研讨会是及时的，因为科学界和政策制定界准备进行前所未有的互动，因为世界各地的政策制定者都计划采取行动应对气候变化。

These funds help support a series of workshops entitled the "Charles Keeling Memorial Climate-Related Science and Policy Workshops" whose aim is to explore the scientific underpinnings of natural and anthropogenic climate change as well as potential strategies for adaptation and mitigation. Support of the workshops continues a series of successful briefing for policy makers on Capitol Hill organized by the American Meteorological Society (AMS) over the last few years. To aid those who are interested in the content of the workshops but cannot attend the briefings on Capitol Hill, the AMS will video tape the workshops and make them publicly available on the AMS website. Such workshops are timely because the science and policymaking communities are poised to interact as never before as policymakers, worldwide, plan for action on climate change.
